TGPSC AEE Exam Pattern 2026 (From Official Notification) |
|
| Paper | Questions / Marks / Time |
| Paper I: General Studies and General Abilities | 150 Questions | 150 Marks | 150 Minutes |
| Paper II: Concerned Subject (Environmental Engineering) | 150 Questions | 300 Marks | 150 Minutes |
| Total | 450 Marks |
| Language of Paper I | Bilingual (English and Telugu) |
| Language of Paper II | English only |
| Question Type | Objective (MCQ) |
| Note: The notification does not mention any negative marking in the pages I checked. Please read the instructions printed on your question paper and hall ticket to confirm. | |
How to Calculate Your Marks Using the Answer Key? |
|
Formula: Estimated Marks = (Paper I Correct x 1) + (Paper II Correct x 2) Example (for understanding only): If a candidate gets 100 correct in Paper I and 90 correct in Paper II, marks = 100 + (90 x 2) = 280 out of 450. Important: This is only an estimate. The per-question marks are worked out from the total marks and question count in the notification. TGPSC may change the key, delete questions, or apply normalisation if the test is held in many sessions, so your final marks can be different. |
|
Qualifying Marks (As Per Official Notification) |
|
| Category | Minimum Qualifying Marks |
| OC, Sportspersons and EWS | 40% |
| BC | 35% |
| SC, ST and PwBD | 30% |
| Note: Only getting the minimum marks does not give a right to selection. Selection is by merit rank against available vacancies. | |
What Will TGPSC Do After the Objections? |
|
Note: Objections on the final key will not be accepted. |
